PsicoOne Two more days later, I sprinkled them with mycorrhiza on the coco tab and placed them in the final pot. I filled a 12.5 L Airpot with my soil mix and added 5g of mycorrhiza, 50g of Silicum Flash, 50g of Startrex, and 1 Bio Tab. After that, I watered the plant with 150 ml of my nutrient solution (1L = 4ml Root Juice / 2ml Alfa Boost). Two more days later, I watered with 1L of the BioTabs solution (1L = 10ml Orgatrex / 1g Bactrex) (pH 6.35). To keep the humidity a bit higher, I always have small light-transmitting domes on my plants at the beginning, as I have 3 plants in different stages in my small grow tent, but I can't please everyone, and I don't use a humidifier or dehumidifier.

PsicoOne On day 9, the plant gets 1 L of water with 0.5 ml of CalMag and 2 ml of Alfa Boost. On day 12, 1 L of water with 0.5 ml of CalMag. On day 14, it gets 1 L of water with 0.8 ml of CalMag; also, I spray the plant now every 3-4 days with a solution of 500 ml of water and 5 ml of Alfa Boost until the start of flowering week 2.

PsicoOne On day 16, my plant received 500 ml of compost tea, not that it needed it, but I had brewed some for another plant and there was still some left over. On day 18, it will get 1L (0.5ml BioBizz CalMag / 2 ml Alfa Boost). I also start with LST and remove shoots that grow downward; I only try to keep the ones that have an easy time growing toward the light. After the stress, I spray it with the Alfa Boost solution and leave it alone for the rest of the week.

PsicoOne Not much is happening during the week, she barely took up any water from day 18 to 25, I think I stressed her too much. On day 22, I made an LST correction and noticed that she had hardly taken up any water. On day 25, I gave her 1L of water (0.5ml BioBizz CalMag. / 1ml BioBizz Top Max / 2ml Alfa Boost) and now she's drinking well again. On day 27, I gave her another 1L of water (0.5ml BioBizz CalMag.).

PsicoOne On day 30, I change her side shoots a bit with LST. By the next day, day 31, she looks good again, and I give her 1L of water with 1ml of BioBizz calMag and 2ml of Alfa Boost, along with minimal LST changes. On day 32, LST turns more into HST. I squeeze and twist the main shoot to the side and hold it down with a gardener's wire. Probably due to the stress, she has been drinking a bit less water these days. By day 34, the lady has recovered again, and on day 35, I give her 1L of water with 1ml of BioBizz CalMag. I also remove a sun sail and four shoots that are totally covered. You can now nicely see that she is transitioning into flowering. In summary: I think I shouldn't have worked the plant so much with LST but just let her grow naturally. But hindsight is always 20/20.

PsicoOne I mark Day 37 as Flowering Day 1 in my diary, today she gets 1L of water with 1ml of BioBizz CalMag. On Day 40, the lady will be lightly defoliated and the LST will be adjusted a bit, plus she gets another 1L of water with 1ml of BioBizz CalMag and 4ml of Alfa Boost. For Day 42, there's going to be a bit of stress again. I’m moving the plant into my small tent measuring 40x40x140cm under a 100 Watt LED because it’s getting too cramped in my other tent for 3 plants. After the move, the plant will be treated with Super Cropping so that it perfectly fills the small tent. Then she gets another 1L of water with 5ml of Neem oil because those fungus gnats are starting to get on my nerves. I actually prefer to use nematodes, but I didn’t feel like ordering any.

PsicoOne On day 44, which corresponds to about flower day 8, there is 1L of water with 1ml of BioBizz CalMag and 5ml of Bio Tabs PK 5-8. On day 46, there is again 1L of water with 1ml of BioBizz CalMag, and on day 48, she gets 1L of water with 1ml of BioBizz CalMag and 5ml of Alfa Boost. She has really stretched out in this small tent over the week, but luckily I ordered a new tent during this week and it’s already here and set up. Next week, all the ladies will be back together in a 120x120x200cm tent.

PsicoOne On day 52, she gets 1L of water with 1ml of CalMag. Additionally, she gets a little defoliation and some LST. Since I now have more space in the tent, I'm trying to spread her out a bit more. On day 53, there was the big BioTabs feeding with 1L of water, 1ml of CalMag, 20ml of Orgatrex, and 1g of Bactrex. On day 54, 1L of water with 1ml of CalMag. And on day 55, she got another shower. I'm spraying the plant with a solution of 1L of water and 20ml of Alfa Boost for the last time; from now on, she'll only get Alfa Boost in the soil. On day 56, it's watering time again, 1L of water with 1ml of CalMag and 6ml of Alfa Boost. On day 57, there was 1L of water with 1.5ml of CalMag.

PsicoOne On day 59, I broke a little something, first I gave 1.5L of water with 1ml of CalMag. Then I had the dumb idea to break two branches. I wanted to spread the buds apart because they had already grown into each other in two places. I just bent the branches a bit, but unfortunately, they quickly snapped. I fixed 2 of the 3 branches with tape, and a few days later, she recovered from it. On day 60, I added a little topping of about 8g of Silicium Flash with some fresh soil on top and watered with 1L of water. I also fixed one of the bends with tape again. On day 61, I gave 1L with 10ml of Bio Tabs PK 5-8 and 0.3ml of CalMag. On day 62, 1.5L of water with 1ml of CalMag, and on day 63, 1L with 1ml of CalMag and 6ml of Alfa Boost. On day 64, I gave 1L of water with 1ml of CalMag. The broken shoots have recovered quite well, and I'm pretty confident that I won't have significant losses. Conclusion: So next time, I won't do any more experiments, just very, very light LST or with a ScrOG net. Also, the plant released its first scents this week. Hard to describe, I would call it spicy; it kind of smells like being in a spice shop with spices and herbs from all over the world, a bit pungent, but let's see what else comes.

PsicoOne On day 65, there’s water twice, once in the morning and then again in the late afternoon. In the morning, 1.5L with 1ml CalMag. In the afternoon, the same solution again but 1L. On day 66, there was 1L, and on day 67, 1.5L with 1ml CalMag each. Day 68 had 1L with 0.5ml CalMag, and on day 69, 500ml of compost tea and another 500ml of water. On day 70, I removed a few leaves from the very bottom and from the middle and watered with 1L with 0.5ml CalMag and 8ml Alfa Boost. All three spots I broke last week have recovered well over the week, and I’ve removed the tape again. The buds are nice and firm and covered with plenty of trichomes. They are mostly green and have a few purple petals here and there. Their smell has also changed. It still has that strong spicy note but with a bit more sweetness and fruit. I’m curious to see what the final result will be in a few weeks.

PsicoOne It's their last week, all the trichomes are milky and the first ones are starting to shimmer amber. That's at least how I like it best. On days 71, 72, and 73, I gave 1L of water with 0.3ml of CalMag each day. On day 74, just 1L of adjusted water, and on day 76, another 1.2L of water. On day 77, the soil still has some residual moisture, and I'm starting to initiate the harvest. I'm now radically defoliating her and leaving only the upper sun leaves, and then I'm keeping the light on 24 hours a day for about 60 hours. Luckily, a rapid temperature drop is forecasted for this week, so hopefully, I can keep the temperature below 24°C. The smell of the buds is really interesting; it smells creamy, spicy, sweet, and with a hint of fruit. I'm glad that the strong spicy note has receded a bit. The buds are rock hard and have very few leaves between them, and the trichome coverage is great. I'm very satisfied with the genetics regarding growth. Considering I haven't treated them optimally, they've still done quite well. I'm looking forward to the final result.

PsicoOne Since day 76, the soil has been almost dry, and on day 77, I'm sending them into a 24-hour light cycle for 70 hours. I'm not giving my plants a dark phase anymore, but harvesting under light stress; I find this method better. And I also got lucky with the weather. The temperatures have dropped significantly, and I was able to maintain 24°C, although the humidity was a bit high at 51%. I am very, very satisfied with the genetics, and I will definitely try them again. The terpene profile has completely changed once more, but more on that later in the harvest report.

PsicoOne First of all, a little warning because the wet weight is just an estimate. I multiplied the dry weight (basic drying) by 3 because I don’t weigh my plants wet since I let them dry on the stem, and with the stem and the leftover water, it would almost be a kilo otherwise. For the harvest, I cut the plant down and hung it whole in my little tent. I let it dry until the small stems of the leaves are dry; that’s how I find it best. The branches themselves shouldn’t break yet but should be close to it so that the buds aren’t too dry. After 2 days, I broke the plant down into smaller pieces so the buds aren’t too tightly packed together. And after 6 days, that moment also came. First, I remove all the leaves without trichomes, and then the trimming begins, which went really well with this strain. It hardly had any leaves; I got 6.2 grams of sugar leaves and otherwise only really nice thick buds. 103.3 grams of "almost" dry buds. I pack everything into jars and terplock bags and let it slowly dry for about 2 months. I think I will lose about 20-30 grams in weight during that time. I tasted a few drier popcorn buds to get an impression of what to expect in 2 months.
